Lucia in Taipei
Although Christmas is hardly a traditional taiwanese tradition the xmas spirit is present even here, among plastic Christmas trees, blinking lights and xmas card sell-outs. I am not, however, expecting a white Christmas 
To help set the mood the Swedish trade council in Taipei arranged a Lucia party earlier this week offering swedish glogg, Christmas ham, Lucia buns and to top it off a beautiful Lucia procession singing all traditional swedish Lucia songs you could ever wish for. Too bad I did not to bring my camera, it was very nice and came with plenty of Kodak moments. I also received a package from home this week (can’t wait to open it), Im ready for Christmas.
The event was a nice break from my thesis that currently takes most of my time as I am trying to conclude my research. After a lot of hard work the research turned out quite good and I feel good about what I’ve accomplished. Too bad it is over very soon, I have only about one week left on the implementation which. After that I have to finish the written report and voila, Im ready to graduate
